Zatanna

There was a melodic ripple in the air followed by a flare of blue sparks. You thought they faded into star-shaped lights and then a flat purple disc seven feet high grew out from nothing. It was obviously a portal, but not the same kind that the Boom Tube tech produced. This seemed more… magical, and as the figure stepped out of this doorway through space and time, white doves fluttered through with her. It really was a magician.

You’d been to one of Zatanna’s magic stage shows before, but that was from a seat in the nosebleeds. Seeing the woman up close was something else. Breathtaking. You wondered if every time you met a superheroine was going to feel like this. Would give you this same sense of awe as every one of your senses took in her form.

“Sorry, I was in the middle of a show,” she said apologetically, as if to explain away her incredible outfit. Or maybe for the doves now cooing up in the rafters. She was wearing a white bow tie and black silk top hat, which went well with her jet black hair tumbling down to her shoulders. Around those shoulders was a short black jacket, white magician’s gloves at the end of their long sleeves. Beneath the coat she wore an elegant white, button up top that was cut low, hugging her form nicely and showing off her ample cleavage. You weren’t sure what to call her bottoms… they were black too and basically only covered her pelvic region, while from her exposed thighs to her ankles she wore a tight pair of black fishnet stockings. The look was completed by a set of shiny black heels and god damn did this work perfectly for Zatanna.

You could barely take your gaze off her shapely legs in those fishnets, but luckily the woman was so stunningly beautiful it was easy to meet eyes with her. “Hello, I’m Zatanna,” she greeted you politely, vanishing her cane though she paused half way to shaking your hand upon seeing your bandages. She wiped some sweat from her brow and apologized again. She seemed a little out of breath. “Sorry, I forgot how far the Watchtower was. That portalling took a bit out of me.”

“Zatanna, were you briefed?” Doctor McGee cut in before you could say anything. The magician turned to her and nodded.

“Sort of. Wonder Woman’s in trouble. We need to deliver her an asset?” she tried, rather uncomfortable with the vagueness herself. The mistress of magic turned to you. “You’re the asset.” she guessed correctly and you tried to put on a brave smile.

“Yes… we need to get Doctor Doe down to there to Diana as quickly as possible,” Tina explained. “She needs his… treatment.”

Perhaps Zatanna didn’t notice the pause to be suspicious, or maybe she just trusted Doctor McGee and knew time was of the essence.

“Alright well if you’re packed and ready to go, Doc, then let’s go,” she said, nodding to you. “Let’s save Wonder Woman.”

With that, your world went BOOM.
